Taking a little detour from our the scheduled topic today to make sure you have a chance to checkout a few things!

First thing I want to mention is Tom Fidgen’s new website www.theunpluggedwoodshop.com. Heading into the holidays I had mentioned receiving my copy of his new book “Made By Hand – Furniture projects from the Unplugged Woodshop” and how much of a fan of his blog I was.

Since then, Tom has a new and very interactive site up, complete with galleries and downloadable plans for the projects featured in his book. The cool thing is, everything is free and definitely worth getting lost in!

Other things I wanted to mention include a survey by the folks at Woodworking in America as they plan the next conference for October 2010, make sure you sign up for the newsletter at their website to learn more. And a few other things you’ll have to watch or listen to the show to find out about.
